Just wanted to voice my agreement with (most) people on this board that CI's support of mixed URLs is SERIOUSLY lacking. This is especially true for people who are stuck on servers that do not allow path_info... which seems to be a large number of the big hosts.
It is ESSENTIAL these days to be able to extract information from query strings generated by other people, if you use WEB API's. Anything that uses oAuth is going to require this. Many that don't use oAuth send info through the query string only.
I shouldn't have to sacrifice clean urls to be able to accept query string parameters, and I shouldnt spend an ENTIRE DAY (as I did today, before I found this thread) creating a work-around for something that would take 15 seconds in raw php. That does not a good framework make :-\
I love codeigniter, so far I think they are the best I have used. However, lets not ignore the faults. Lets push ellislabs to do something about this. I was just about ready to go back to Zend today...
